After some prodding, I installed k3b which did successfully burn a DL DVD. It uses growisofs on the backend, which I did try a week or so ago and it wasn't working. Tkdvd also uses growisofs, so I presume that it would work now as well. brasero still wasn't working yesterday, at least for DL, but I have been trying to periodically rebuild it with and without libburn, so it might be a bit confused now. At any rate I assume that the cam/ata fixes in my latest kernel got growisofs working correctly again. robert. > robert. -- Robert Noland FreeBSD
